MICHEAL VICK WILL SHINE AGAIN!
Once the highest paid NFL player and a Falconer, but they got him and jailed him for financing dog-fights? This is when more dangerous criminals, who committed more heinous crimes, are turned loose by the judiciary system with some of them still running wild and free? He did his time and is now a free man. The best of the good news is that Micheal Vick will play again, thanks to the Philadelphia Eagles, who signed him up for a two year contract. With a short terse sentence, “He signed with the Eagles,” agent Joel Segal informed the waiting and whistling world that it is back to business for the adorable MV. Icheoku commends their magnanimity and understanding, that what Micheal Vick did time for was not so egregious as would bar him forever from doing what he does best; admitted it was morally reprehensible. Even human-beings are made public spectacles, when people pay to watch two boxers beat themselves silly; but dogs, they should not be made to fight irrespective that they ordinarily fight themselves all the time? Anyway, that is the law and MV broke it and has served his time! Let everybody now move on! You will recall that Micheal Vick, the former Atlanta Falcons quarterback was convicted in August 2007 of two counts criminal charge of conspiracy and running a dogfighting operation? He was sentenced to about two years imprisonment and served one and half years of the sentence, before his release from his federal prison confinement. He also was also, under pressure from some animal activists, suspended indefinitely by the NFL; but Commissioner Roger Goodell conditionally lifted the suspension on July 27, with a promise to review same for possible full reinstatement by October 18-19, this year. We pray he follows through with his promise that MV be allowed to do his thing. Icheoku calls on the 'People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals', to let Vicks be; he has paid for what he allegedly did and life should now go on for everyone involved here. We reiterate that PETA spokesman Dan Shannon's statement that "PETA and millions of decent football fans around the world are disappointed that the Eagles decided to sign a guy who hung dogs from trees" is not helpful here. We like to remind Mr. Dan Shannon not to forget that black-people were once hung from trees too, and heavens did not fall? But in any other event, it is our candid position that once MV is fully back to his game, and starts giving the fans the type of football they admire and want to see, that all the brouhaha of PETA and other similarly minded organisations will quietly peter away. 
Further, that there is no message being sent to young fans with Vick's re-signing as Bill O'Reilly was once involved in a sexual harassment of his assistant and he still anchors for Fox Television? Another guy, Marv Albert, once bite his wife on the butt, and he has since been brought back to do his football commentary on Television? Icheoku asks, so, why can't Micheal Vick be given a second chance in life, or do you guys want to force him to prematurely retire at 29? Once again, we say thank you, thank you to Philadelphia Eagles for braving this Micheal Vick's signing, and hopefully their investment will be handsomely rewarded. They did the right thing by giving MV another chance in life, in the spirit of condemn the act but not the man; moreso he has served his time and is too young to be jobless!
